SV162 - Thanks for the kind words! - It is a blast to Drive.

Well I got out to Test n tune at Pittsburgh Raceway park tonite.

First run I got the car nice and warm - Adjusted Tire and Shock pressures etc. Wind was nice and calm.

and Then I knocked down my previous Best time of 14.79 with a run of 14.73.


Here are the runs in order:

Run 1 - - 1/8 9.44 @74.18 1/4 - - 14.7329@93.95 Run 1 Here

Run 2 - - 1/8 9.44 @74.06 1/4 - - 14.7243@93.95

Run 3 - - 1/8 9.54 @74.69 1/4 - - 14.7912@94.50 Run 3 Here



- The air was much cooler on run 3 -- Faster mph, but slower et's I also threw the fan belt on this run.


Vid's to come on youtube.


Greg

Well done Greg, that's some great times there. I'm looking forward to seeing the video.

On a side note, where did you get the 225 Four Barrel decal on your air cleaner from??

SV, the Pie pan is a 340 four Barrel one - Very easily found online and at swap meets as it's reproduced and readily available in the 'states

My dad had a graphics shop make up some 225 Decals in 3 colors to put overtop of the 340 numbers that are there. Very nice birthday gift from my dad there!

Hello Folks,

I know many of you have seen the article in print, but for those of you who do not subscribe, like me - here is the link to the Web edition of the article.


http://www.moparmusclemagazine.com/feat ... index.html

I got the rear end back to the 4.10 locker and the trans back to the close ratio 2.66 Low gear box.. Not it just needs to stop raining so I can hit a test n tune.

:)




Thanks all!


Greg

Wow! and a 2.00 60' which Is great for my 2.66 low gear.

Awesome job my friend! What kind of MPH did you pull? Running slicks or street tires? 4.10's or the 3.23's? You should run the 1/4 with the 3.23's to see what it can do...ok ok...so I can see what it will do :lol:

Greg was Running some great times with his car at mason dixon. I really liked the elimination race between him and Lou, they both dialed in within about .2 sec of each other, It was a close race, and alot of fun to watch. I'm gonna try to put a video of it You Tube if I can figure it out. Great Car Greg

Hello raPoM also Known as MoPar when spelled in reverse :)

All of the runs and times here are with the 4.10 Setup. MPH is usually 93.5-93.8 and higher.. Sometimes It hits the 94.0-94.1 Range..


I have never run it with the 3.23's my guess it's a high 16 Second car with those.

Thanks Ryan, I am lookin forward to the vids - Your cam is of much better quality than mine and more enjoyable to watch!


Greg

I bet you would run 15.1 or so with 3.23s. Not as much difference as people think.
